    That's the short answer, but I reckon the reason that a Windows
connection can be tweaked so much, is 'cause there's a hell'uva lot
more room for improvement to start with.

    I've spent years tweaking Windows connections, even somewhat
successfully, and now I do my 'heavy' d/l'g with Linux .... 'cause
it's faster.

   You ought'a try d/l'g in Arkansas Hoyt, they're still tryin to
use tin cups and strings around here.
